Effective dose in medicine [PDF]
Annals of the ICRP, 2020 The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) developed effective dose as a quantity related to risk for occupational and public exposure. There was a need for a similar dose quantity linked to risk for making everyday decisions relating to medical procedures. Coefficients were developed to enable the calculation of doses to organs and

Effective dose ? how effective for patients?
Radiation and Environmental Biophysics, 1993 The question discussed in this paper is whether effective dose can reflect the risk to patients from radiological procedures and can be used, for example, to optimise procedures and compare risks of various methods, to define dose constraints, and to estimate the risks to individuals or populations attributed to medical exposures.

Dose-Effects Models for Space Radiobiology: An Overview on Dose-Effect Relationships [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2021 Space radiobiology is an interdisciplinary science that examines the biological effects of ionizing radiation on humans involved in aerospace missions. The dose-effect models are one of the relevant topics of space radiobiology. Their knowledge is crucial for optimizing radioprotection strategies (e.g., spaceship and lunar space station-shielding and ...
